Cloud-based education platform
WizIQ, which offers a collaborative and multilingual interface for delivering online courses, has launched new apps for
iOS and
Android tablets that enable
teachers to
conduct live online classes using these devices.
Earlier, only students had access to these apps so that they could attend online classes from anywhere and from any device (
PC,
iPad and
Android tablets). However, teachers had to conduct classes either from their
desktops or
laptops. With the upgraded apps in place, teachers can now access the
WizIQ Virtual Classroom through their
tablet devices and stay connected with students while on the go. The new versions also include a number of teacher-centric features that will add value to the
learning experience. The
WizIQ App is free and can be downloaded from Apple’s
iTunes Store or
Google Play.
The new versions of the WizIQ App allow teachers to conduct online classes, anytime and anywhere; use all whiteboard tools; upload and share audio/video files;
extend class duration and
record live classes.
Commenting on the launch, WizIQ
CEO Harman Singh said, “The upgraded WizIQ (tablet) App promises to take teaching experience to a whole new dimension by enabling instructors to teach their students live, through their own devices.”
Mohali-headquartered WizIQ successfully operates a marketplace where teachers can sell their courses to its 3-million-strong student community. Nearly 250,000 teachers,
trainers and
teaching organisations are currently registered on WizIQ. Besides
Mohali, the company has offices in
Bangalore,
Hyderabad and
North Carolina. For more information on this
